HALIFAX SENTIMENT.
Think the Fish Commission VIII End In n
Fiasco.:

Fiasco.:
NEW YORK, October l3-A Halifax
special says: The publication here of a
Washington special saying that Secretary
Bayard and Commissioners Putnam and
Angel had determined that free fish could
not be made the basis of the pending negO.
tiations, excites great interest and is the
principal theme of discussion in business
circles. The great thing that Nova Scotia
cares for in the fishery muddle is the admis-
sion of its fish free into the United States.
That is the one thing that is of any ad-
vantage to this country. Nova Scotia
would also like to have free admission for
its natural products, but this is ur-
important compared with free fish.
There has been growing feel
ing ever since the appointment OF
the Commission was announced that 1t
would not result in anything practical.
The feeling is universal to-day that it will
be farce. A large section of our people
have no confidence whatever in Chamber
lain, and Irisn Canadians would infinitely
prefer that things should remain as they
are. rather than that Chamberlain should
have any hand in the settlement. The
only thing wanted by the Americans is
the right of commerce and the privilege Of
trans shipment of their fish in bond. They
can carry on their fisheries without buying
bait here. These are the only two points
the Americans want to secure and just the
two that there is not the slightest proha-
bility of either the English or Canadian
Commissioners agreeing to. II they did
their action would never be ratified by the
Canadian Parliament So that it Is both
the universal feeling and hope here that
the commission viii end IN iasco.

Nothing New In IN. supar Trust

NEW YORK, October 13.-NOthing new
was learned yesterday concerning the for
m .tlon of the sugar trust The members
of the different sugar firms were absolutely
mum upon the subject and no information
about the matter was obtsinable from that
quarter. A well known sugar broker said
that the story was true, but that the pub
licity given it had hurt the plans OF the
projectors and would probably delay the
formation Of the trust.

absent. Entering the house quietly,
Mrs Oberry was overpowered and as
saulted, one keeping guard at the door.
They then fled. The woman managed to
reach her nearest neighbors and informed
them of the terrible treatment she had been
subjected to. A posse of armed men soon
gathered and the trail of the miscreants
was taken up The party searched all that
night. but it was late Sunday
before they found the black
wretches. While being taken to

ELoPED WITH AN INDIAN.
How a Minister'S Daughter was De
ceived by a Bogus Spaniard.

How a Minister'S Daughter was De-
ceived by Bogus Spaniard.
From, the Philadelphia Press
NIAGARA FALLS, Dec. 11.-News has
reached here of the elopement Of a minis
ter'S daughter with full-blooded Tuscarora
Indian, with whom she became acquainted,
under the supposition that he was Span
lard. David Littlejohn, the Indian, has
been around the Falls for some time, doing
little work, but always being reasonably
we'll dressed. He had some education and
an agreeable manner.
The story told by the girls brother, who
was here to-day, is this: His father, he says,
is Rev. Augustus Schwitzen. He lives at
Swarmsville, near Transit, in Erie county,
on the line of the New York Central rail-
road. His sister, Pauline, will be II years
old in February. She is a blonde, with
blue eyes, faxen hair, and has been edu-
Gated by her father Last summer Pauline
came with some friends on an excursion to
Niagara Falls. While on Goat Island she
missed her companions, and, meeting the
Indian, asked him to assist her in looking
for them This he did and made himself so
agreeable that an acquaintance followed.
He told her he was Spaniard and was
stopping at the Prospect House with some
titled Europeans, by whom he was. EN-
into love and arrangements were
made by letter for the girl to 'elope
with the pseudo Spaniard She left her
home dressed in her best attire early on
Monday morning and took the SIS train at
Transit for Niagara Falls, going by way of
Towanda. Some letters written by Little
john were found in her room and accounted
for her disappearance. Mr.. Schwitzen
traced his sister to Niagara Falls and there
lost track of her After making as thor
ough an investigation as he knew how to,
he went home. This was on Thursday
Meanwhile, Littlejohn went to Swarmsville
with the girl, introduced her as his bride,
and sought parental forgiveness. The in
dignant relatives of the girl had ascertained
that the man was a ne'er-do-well Indian,
who earned what money he had in some
mysterious manner, and they ordered him
out of the house. He declined TO leave I'M
less she went too, and the result was fight
in which Littlejohn was kicked and pounded
mercilessly The girl tried to interfere,
| declared that she loved the man. and
| would follow him whenever he went. Lit
tleiohn was kicked out and threatened with
| tar and feathers if he ever showed his face
in the neghborhood, and Pauline was
locked up in the room. The girl said that
they went to Hamilton from Niagara Falls,
were married by some minister, whose name
she falls to recolect, and stopped at a small
hotel The certificates, she said, her hus-
band kept. Pauline persisted that he was
not an Indian, and she still believes that he
is we'll off. Her folks will try to have the
marriage annulled, although they think it
was a mock marriage. Mr. Schwitzen had
no chance at Littlejohn, and came here
to-day hunting for him. TO those he
talked with at Suspension Bridge he said he
had a revolver and would kill the Indian at
sight.
